#Sheltie

[shepherdfeathers]

This goes both ways, because my sheltie is fantastic at following directions, and she’s also dumb as rocks

No one can tell me she’s the pinnacle of canine intelligence

It fucks with me that dog intelligence is tested with obedience tests, so there's a significant bias towards compliant dog breeds. Dogs that are intelligent enough to understand what is being asked of them, but are too headstrong and/or independent to go through with it, get lumped up with the dogs that might want to do what people ask them to do, but are too stupid to understand the assignment.

And it fucks with me that chihuahuas are actually quite intelligent. They're not stressed and angry because they're too stupid to understand what's going on. They understand exactly what's going on, and that's why they're so angry and stressed.

Fox had a super good day (health wise) so he enjoyed a walk with us ❤️.

I had a dream that this dog was my mascot instead of the Kaneid. I'm not very good at furries but had to draw her

My dog Morty has birthday today so I did draw a little sketch of him and Risotto Nero.

Happy birthday to little Morty!
